Weetabix has extended its warehouse management partnership with XPO Logistics, as the breakfast brand looks to boost efficiency across its UK supply chain.

The cereal brand’s new agreement covers two automated warehouse sites in Burton Latimer and Corby, Northamptonshire, ramping up technology and data visibility.

The logistics solutions provider said both facilities have also retained an AA+ BRC audit rating for the second consecutive year.

“XPO Logistics has more than proved its expertise in all areas of our warehousing, and we are thrilled to be extending our partnership,” said Weetabix head of supply chain Richard Spaughton.

“Its sustainable approach and proprietary technology have already streamlined our warehousing operations, and we are looking forward to continuing to augment our processes even further.”

XPO said the collaboration has improved service levels by more than 9 per cent, alongside achieving over 1,000 days without a lost time incident and unlocking more than £0.5m for reinvestment into operations.

XPO Logistics Europe senior vice president supply chain Dan Myers added: “This has been a true partnership from day one, and together, we’ve delivered on all our shared goals.
